Since most graphic designers and (professional) webdesigners use OS X, I doubt that Silverlight will ever become a serious alternative to Adobe's Flash for them. They sure won't give up their Mac for Silverlight.

Flash is popular with designers, but is very limited in terms of building applications. The Silverlight framework has all the features of Flash, plus a full development system.

Flash will be around for a while, but Silverlight has the potential to take over. I'm currently working on a video website (like everybody else) and found flash to be severely lacking in features. You can skin players and add some Javascript controls, but that's about it. I'm running with Silverlight.
